Bell Post Hill He Who Hesitates... Meditates

$310,000 Norlane Price by Negotiation $175,000 - $195,000 The Early Bird Catches The Worm

If you think you have time to sit and think about this home you will miss out (and then have plenty of time to ponder what happened). A classic double fronted brick veneer that offers huge opportunity to update and grow the value. Each of the 3 bedrooms includes built-in-robes, the kitchen offers ample cupboard space, the lounge is generous and the bathroom has been updated. With gas appliances, an air conditioner, high ceilings, there are hidden timber floors and the roof is terracotta tiles. Outside on this generous block 630sqm allotment sits a large double garage and comes with long term tenants and is handy to shops, schools, buses and the Ring Road. Don’t wait or you will be meditating to sooth the loss of missing out on this fine Bell Post Hill home.

Nestled away towards the end of a court, sits this solid ex-government home which will soon become one lucky buyer´s new property. For both occupiers and investors this home is a great opportunity with many updates made over time including in the kitchen, the gas heater in the lounge (which also acts as a cooler), the electrical switchboard, and a newer roof plus there is a covered entertainment area and a long tandem garage with plenty of backyard for children to play. Not to mention the scope for development into potentially a 2 lot subdivision (stca). With a long term tenant of almost 10 years, this home needs just a little elbow grease and you will be laughing like a kookaburra all the way to the bank.

Lara home with plenty of space F

amilies will enjoy the functionality this spacious brick home provides. An L-shaped dining and lounge room combines openplan with comfort, allowing activities in the home’s kitchen to be separate from the lounge.

An adjoining family room at the front of the house provides an additional cosy sitting space or a fantastic guest retreat because it adjoins a bedroom.

These bedrooms feature floor-toceiling windows and built-in robes.

The master bedroom has additional built-in robes and a two-way en suite with a toilet and a shower that adjoins the main bathroom.

This cleverly-designed set-up allows multiple people to concurrently access bathroom facilities in private.

The home’s kitchen has been recently updated and features stylish wood-finish cupboards.

A breakfast bar doubles as a bench, while a wall oven, a separate gas stovetop and a rangehood provide cooking facilities.

The kitchen also features a skylight, a double sink and a dishwasher.

Ceiling fans, a split-system airconditioner and a gas wall heater are fitted in the lounge and dining areas.

The home’s spacious grassed backyard features a garden shed and a fruit-filled lemon tree.

A spacious and undeveloped front yard provides space for extra car parking or a spot for gardeners to make their own.

The property is situated only a short drive from the centre of town and just minutes from the Princes Freeway between Melbourne and Geelong.

A fenced, open space with a walking track is across the road, providing plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors or exercise pets.
